Thinking about how we really did invent some kind of time travel as I lose/gain a day traveling across multiple time zones 🙃

@TravellingTues Hmm, I definitely mean cheap and accessible! I tend to focus more on cheap/on-a-budget travel and cultural experiences rather than luxury for my travels/ blogging, but I don't mind luxury when possible. You are right, there are so many blogs for all kinds of travel, though!

Happy Tanabata! 🎍💫 #Tanabata, or Star Festival, is a Japanese holiday on July 7th that celebrates the meeting of two star-crossed lovers. People write their wishes on a piece of paper and hang it from a bamboo tree. What are you wishing for this year? #japan

@dipyourtoesin I've been lucky to have fancy toilets in both of my apartments in Japan, and I love it! Will be super bummed to not have it when/if I move away. 😆

@awktravels I would say do grad school and human needs stuff because that's what I should be doing, but do the blog post instead! 😅

@TravellingTues Eating American fast food (i.e., McDonald's) in a foreign country, but choosing the that-country-only options.
